365 Days per Year

Description
Replaces RimWorld's 4-quadrum (60-day) year with the Earth's 12-month Gregorian calendar (365/366 days per year).

Features:
- Earth month names (January through December) with correct month lengths and leap years
- Pawn ages and dates shown using the Gregorian year
- Fixed pawn generation so adults spawn with correct ages
- Birthday display for each pawn showing month, day, and year
- Quadrum system replaced by 12 months in UI readouts where applicable
- Hemisphere-aware seasons (northern/southern hemisphere differences)
- Seasonal temperature progression paced over 365/366 days; Fahrenheit and Celsius shown together or individually
- World tile climate graph of monthly average temperatures
- Growing period readout scaled to a 365/366-day year (not 60)
- Configurable scaling for aging, plant growth, animal yields, research, etc.

The mod provides a familiar calendar while preserving RimWorld's game-play balance.

It is not safe to add to a save. (For a rule of thumb, you should almost never do that)

Mod Incompatibilities:

Mod Incompatibilities/Bugs I'm looking into:
RimHud works fine, but displays incorrect biological age (My mod recognizes the correct one and corrects the age)

Mods That Magically Started Working Again?:
Dubs Rimatomics

Future Updates:
Cleaning up UI and other uses of Quadrums

Future Work:
Custom Months and Year lengths.
Variable Distance From Sun and Other Astrophysical Statistics

@NoahB I can't presume to offer advice on balance, and I'm not sure what all the in-game values are right now, but if I were to use real world chickens as reference, they lay one egg per day and those eggs are around 50 calories.

Rimworld currently sets eggs as about 1/3 the nutrition of a meal and I think that's appropriate. I think chickens should be a good model for a very productive egg-laying domestic animal. I don't know if ~365 eggs a year would be game breaking or not but perhaps lowering their relative nutrition to 0.05 from 0.25 (and thus making it more reflective of their actual caloric value) and having them spoil and deteriorate at a realistic rate/hatch more slowly would be good.

Eggs should be abundant, hard to preserve, and not very filling, but possible to build a decent domestic economy on imo.

hey, wondering if this mod provides (or will provide) an alternate 12*30 days per year

Let me give you a small suggestion: Can the meat and skin produced by human slaughter be set to 1 times the original one? Because the enemy will continue to replenish it, there is too much human flesh and skin in the base at present.

So just to piggyback off Fred I've noticed that too. I do have RimHud i believe but you said that's just the birthdays thing it affects so no biggie to me but yea i know in my current game I'm like in the toppish left corner of my map and it says the growing period is 214/365 days and it's April-October. I started my game in Spring and it's currently June 27th in game and it's 15 degrees in game but I 100% love your mod and know that I can't do what yall do lbs.

Thank you for your reply! I’m really looking forward to the day when Chinese players can fully experience your amazing mod!:steamhappy:

@夜鸦子

Yes. It's something I'm working on. The code is complex and I am a new developer.

@Runissian

Oh, sorry for the issues. I'll look into these issues. One of my other pieces of code is likely interacting weird with the other. I should be pushing the next update in a week.

@Fred104

It's a process for sure. I try my best to play with a bunch of other mods to test functionality and stuff. I noticed that with the 350 mods I use, the season cycle is broken. I need to test using vanilla first, and I don't know if some of the dev settings in increasing days, seasons, or years even works. So I have to let time pass normally. I also feel that playing vanilla is difficult for me (for testing) given I've not played vanilla for like 8 years. I'm doing some redesigning of code to make it all work better. So hopefully it'll all be ironed out soon.

@Mr. J Soda

I'll see what I can do

@itigo205

Yeah I wasn't sure how to deal with egg laying in general. I left it vanilla until I could figure something out. Do you suggest increasing 6x yield, and increasing time between yield 6x and then increasing hatch time too?

@星羽枝繁

Yes. I will look into the translation support. I apologize for not considering other languages. I am new to developing content, as well as, coding. So it may take some time to complete.

Im having the same issue as @Runissian bellow, it counts every four "months" as a different season like in vanilla. my game is overly modded, so i won't complain too much about it, because i probably broke that myself, but if you have any clue why it does that, or even if it is a normal game behavior with the mod on, il gladly take any help/advice. For me its not too much an issue, as i jsut roll with it and say 'yes Gregorian calendar but the planet spin faster than Earth' or some bullshit, but i hope you can understand where the problem lies. Thanks, im still amazed you made this worked as it does currently.
Runissian 3 Oct @ 7:11am 
Couple of issues I'm having: 1. When editing a pawn, the age just does whatever it wants to? I'll have a pawn that's 65, so I lower the age to 20, but then it just sets itself to 5 or 0 or 1, but never the age I want - Even I use the birthday editor. 2. The seasons are all wrong? With the mod enabled, it says it's June, with it disabled, it's Decembruary. The growing season is listed as May to October, but it's snowing and acting just like Decembruary.
夜鸦子 3 Oct @ 1:10am 
The season maintains a 60-day cycle. May I ask if it can be fixed?
